The PC version does not support controllers. They may or may not work, but they are unsupported by the game.
Pressed for explanations by a fan on Twitter, designer Manveer Heir explained why it wasn't possible to add the feature:
@manveerheir that's so...so...frustrating. WHY don't you support gamepad on X360? Please, an honest, no bullshit answer... - a fan
@j0hn385 there is a development cost in terms of time/effort to get all the GUIs (graphical user interfaces) so 360 buttons show up on PC
@j0hn385 it may seem minor, but our GUI team was already stretched thin & things were coming in on at last min, so we couldn't add more work
@manveerheir seems rather sloppy and "we don't give a damn"-like. :/ people are tearing Bioware apart on GAF for that... !surprising
@j0hn385 Definitely not "we don't give a damn". It's unfortunate and I understand why people are upset, but there are dev realities sadly
